Par value. Par value is the face value, or named value, of a stock or bond. With stocks, the par value, which is frequently set at $1, is used as an accounting device but has no relationship to the actual market value of the stock.
Par Value for Bonds. The par value of a bond is usually  $1,000, which is the face amount at which the issuing entity will redeem the bond certificate on the maturity date. The par value is also the amount upon which the entity calculates the interest that it owes to investors.
